Howdy Howdy,

Okay, we got our butts kicked last night as Chris Sampson had his worse outing of the year. Hopefully, Woody Williams can get the win tonight and help us break out of this losing streak.

I found this one quote by Lance Berkman that I thought was funny. It was from an article by JR Radcliffe off MLB.com. This was in reference to Berkman’s career success against the Cincinnati Reds.

Radcliffe wrote:

” Lance Berkman recorded his 100th career RBI against Cincinnati on Thursday, the only team against which the Astros first baseman has reached the century mark in that department. Berkman has batted a cool .327 against the Reds, and he hits even better against Milwaukee (.341).

“I wish I could tell you [why that was], because then I could try to apply it to the other teams,” Berkman said. “One of the things that makes baseball unique is that there are those anomalies that occur and sometimes they don’t even make any sense.

“Take for example a nasty pitcher. There’s always one guy that nobody’s even heard of who’s 10-for-10 off of him. Stuff like that happens all the time, and I think that’s what makes baseball a great sport.”

Berkman drove in the first run of Friday’s game with an RBI groundout to second base.”

Better luck with the Pirates tonight!
